look, around the country a medicare pays $76 for a return patient visit. that's medicare around the country. in california, these medicaid rates would mean $24 for a visit. would you practice medicine with those kinds of numbers? here now to discuss is democratic strategist chris kofin kofinis, mike slater out of san diego, california, where we all wish we would be. mike slater, let me go to you first. the way california is doing this, they're treating doctors like medicaid surfs. so therefore, no pay, no play. that's simple enough for me. is that the story? >> so glad you used that word. doctors are treated like servants and not like traders of services. i come to you from inside the crystal ball and every doctor i've talked to in california says this is a disaster for patients and for them. everyone was so focused on health insurance, no one ever asked doctors what they think is best. which is so weird because they're the once administering the health care. so we have this situation where maybe more people have health insurance than ever before but what
